"Uh sure ok, but here's the deal -- the winner gets to watch the loser drive his car off Mud Island. Occupied."
Sounds like West Mogadishu.

Weird to visit Graceland which in Elvis’ time was in a nice suburb now it’s gangstas and signs to not leave valuables in your car.
Not in evidence, just assertion by the writer.
"Truly a sight to behold. A man beaten. The once great champ, now, a study in moppishness. No longer the victory hungry stallion we've raced so many times before, but a pathetic, washed up, aged ex-champion."
You haven’t been to LA or SF recently have you?
Glocks converted to full-auto have been popping up in urban crimes with more frequency. Apparently, there is a simple auto sear that can be purchased on-line that will allow a semi-auto Glock-17 to fire in full auto.
Add a large capacity stick or drum magazine and there you go.
No, definitely not.
Only the gangstas can afford that much ammo, LOL
Looks like that conversion is under 100 bucks.
Perfect Valentine gift for your sweetie....
Memphis looks immaculate by comparison
Add a large capacity stick or drum magazine and there you go.
Those things are worse than useless.
Muzzle climb in full-auto is a notorious phenomenon, and on a pistol it is nearly impossible to mitigate. That means that one, maybe two rounds have a chance of hitting; the rest goes skyward.
Or they’ll use some of them as their alternate security force after they’re done defunding the police.
This could give Mustang drivers a bad rap.
But! That’s against the law!
